On August 4, 2025, VinFast began operations at its new manufacturing plant in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, India, marking its first overseas factory. This facility has an initial capacity to build 50,000 electric vehicles annually, with the potential to scale up to 150,000 units.
This inauguration is a critical step in VinFast's global expansion strategy, establishing India as a production hub for South Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. The company aims to source more parts locally, enhancing supply chain resilience and cost efficiency.
The India plant is a key test of VinFast's vehicles' popularity and business acumen in the world's third-largest auto market. The company has already received orders from Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Mauritius, indicating early international interest in its locally produced EVs.
